HI R-users I downloaded the latest version of R with the name R-latest.tar.gz from the website But when I tar the package and configure the package, some error message showed that configure: error: --with-readline=yes (default) and headers/libs are not available and I run make command: error message says; user@gateway R-2.13.2]$ make make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. How could I install the R package or is there any binary version of R so that I can tar the compressed package and use R directly? thank you . -- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
